  Abstract. Modern enterprises rely on Information Systems required both to
  support their operation and provide information required to endorse strategic
  decisions. Because of their increasing complexity, such systems are usually
  constructed by integrating software components of different nature and origins,
  e.g., commercial off-the-shelf components (COTS), free and open source
  software (FOSS), web services and micro-services and also bespoke software
  and legacy systems, into complex hybrid systems. To support their design,
  implementation and evolution, non-traditional, non-sequential “random
  lifecycles” are required. In such lifecycles, traditional system engineering
  activities such as requirements elicitation, architectural design and system
  integration are randomly intertwined, on-demand, with more contemporary
  activities such as components evaluation and selection, integration with legacy
  systems, transition among legacy and newly acquired or developed
  components, among others. In this talk we invite the audience to explore
  creative ways in which i* models can be used, both in academy and practice, to
  support activities in complex random lifecycles applied over Information
  Systems.
